Holiday weekend, so I guess it makes sense. "Hey, all, let's go to Disney World for Thanksgiving this year!" They really should hold the MC a week later. I'm not going to be able to convince extended family to all go convene in Florida for Thanksgiving, and I can't really give up the once a...

I really wanted to go this year. But having it start the day after Thanksgiving is just completely untenable for me. I'm actually quite shocked at the timing, although I understand it probably allows for much more attractive venue pricing.

How goes it with the 10mm GO custom? You were using it for pool?

As for the actual topic...I hit with an 11.8 Becue shaft for about 30 mins at a vendor booth last year. It was by far my favorite CF shaft I've ever hit with. It was the perfect combination of stiffness and feel/feedback. By that point, I was already playing with a 10.5, which is a strong...

I wish. Both my shafts have green Recoils. Both have needed scuffing every 4-5hrs of play. I bought their own scuffer and then I needed scuffing every 2-3 hrs. It was ridiculous. I've found the Willard's tool works best--probably can push it to 7-8.

I saw that video. I play with a 10.5 and thought "oh, perfect." Got my tips shaped to a dime radius and...miscued too much. They've since flattened/been reshaped to a nickel and I'm back to normal. I'll have to rewatch that video to see how rigorously he made that determination.

Wow you are pompous and condescending. You already provide the ability to split 7' and 9' in your own app. Although, admittedly, most reported games don't seem to have that distinction marked.

I'll take #6

i'll take #6 edit: payment sent

Just wait till it glazes over. They're worse than solid-leather tips, at twice the price!

Yeah, one of the matches the ref must have spent a solid 5mins trying to get a tight rack for one of the games. I wanted to punch a hole in my TV. Just use a damn template. I think the next step in Predator's saturation marketing strategy is to change every word in the English language to...

Yet, the deciding factor was most definitely not 9-ball.

She is a very interesting person to watch play. She seems to be about the most emotionally detached person when playing, but once she wins gold she is about the most emotionally expressive and vulnerable person. It is definitely a fascinating dichotomy.

The cue spike was fantastic. The shootout was anti-climactic. I still view it like stopping a tied basketball game with 1 min left in regulation to determine the winner by a free-throw shooting contest. And in a world championship? Seo Seoa--the world champion of 9 ball, that she won by making...

You repeat the same error you did before--comparing a handful of players at ages 16-19 to one at 15. You also mostly compare her 15-year-old accomplishments mostly to the handful of 770+ women players at those elder-teen years. There are a lot more than five players in the top-20, and you...
